Oracle strategy for JavaOne/JUG/Java champion : What impact for our communities?
This is my understanding and what I heard:
JavaOne
2010:
- JavaOne 2010 will still run at Moscone Center (San Francisco, Ca)
- No change on content (focus on Java technology)
– No change in process and revue
- CommunityOne still on the agenda
After 2010:
- JavaOne will become a traveling event (China, Russia, India etc.)
JUGs and Java champion programs:
– The Java champion program will be supported and will not be merged with Oracle programs like ACE (good news for our Java champion Hakim…)
– The JUG program is still on the agenda, support will continue
Others:
- Java.net: Only the logo will change, the content stays the same
What about Africa?
During the conference I asked if Oracle had plans for some Java or Oracle events in Africa. Justin’s answer was something like this: No plan for JavOne in Africa but we could expect some regional events in the next years.
What’s your feeling about that?

Happy 10th year, JCertif!
